Wynscreen is situated within Wynyard Walk, one of Australia’s newest and busiest transit spaces, scheduled for launch in 2016, linking Wynyard Station and the recently opened Barangaroo. More than 30,000 commuters and visitors will pass through this location every day.

Commissioned artists will create a unique ‘signature work’ that will continuously enliven and enrich viewers’ experience of Wynyard Walk. The work will reflect the complexity of contemporary culture in Australia by conveying the histories that have shaped ‘who we are’ and ‘where we are’, and the dynamic social and cultural currents that are shaping ‘what we may become’ in the 21st century.
